Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

Two tools, Email Archive and Mailtool, are available for managing email within a site. Additionally, other site tools allow you to send email notifications to participants when you add new items.

Email Archive

The Email Archive gives your site its own email address to use for communications to all participants.

Mailtool

The Mailtool allows users to send a message to the site particpants. It also provides wysiwyg editing, file attachment, group/section-aware recipient selection.

Email notification

Some tools (e.g., Announcements, Resources, and Syllabus) allow you to send email notifications to site participants (at their email addresses) when you add new items. You can specify a low priority email notification, which will be subject to each participant's notification preferences, or high priority, which will override individually set preferences so that all site participants receive the notification.
